A photograph of a seated figure on a red throne with gilded lion-head armrests, in front of a large floral backdrop arched with bands of red, yellow, white and green garlands. The man wears a gold crown, a rudraksha mala and layered heavy gold necklaces, a pink and white flower garland over the shoulders, and an orange-brown dhoti with a shawl, with gold armbands and bangles. A golden trident stands to his left. He holds a microphone at his mouth and rests one hand on an open book on the armrest. Swamiji (probable) based on the distinctive crown, saffron-toned ceremonial clothing, rudraksha mala and gold necklaces, seated in the place of honour during a discourse.
